As mamas we wear a lot of hats and fill a lot of roles, and we think our dress collections should follow suit! ⁠⁠So we’ve rounded up 8 spring dresses that can be dressed up or down, and are versatile enough for all of our seasons of life. Plus, nearly all of them are pregnancy, […]

One evening, just a few weeks ago, my husband was deeply inspired to create a family oratoryand informed me that he had ordered a bronze, Benedictine altar crucifix, an incense boat with a supply of frankincense, an icon for each of our children’s namesakes (baby #7 is on the way), and was on the hunt […]

I had no idea, as I glued a panel of wallpaper to my dining room wall in a rare moment of courage, the extent of the wallpaper love affair that would ensue. The design that I chose is more bold than I would have normally guessed for myself, but I love it so much, and […]

Mornings around here are crazy. Everyone wakes up very, VERY ready for the day. Energy levels are high, appetites are intense, and between the school lunch packing, the hair brushing, the oatmeal making, and the rushing out the door we don’t usually have a lot of time to stop for a quiet moment and talk […]

There’s nothing better than sunny spring days spent outdoors. And as we transition to warmer weather our attention is naturally directed to our patios, porches, and backyard spaces where we can create fresh and functional al fresco vignettes for everyday life to take place. It doesn’t matter whether you live on acres of land, in […]

My husband and I don’t binge on television often, but when we do, it’s something along the lines of HGTV. Whether it’s the gold standard of Fixer Upper, House Hunters, or our latest favorite home renovation show Dream Home Makeover, there is just something about seeing beautiful homes and dreaming about what we might be […]

Do you ever stumble across something that you absolutely love, but are hesitant to incorporate into your home because it might not be “in”?
